COMMUNITY NEEDS A COMMERCE HOWTO
Many people are asking about the topic of collecting credit card
payments and finding a provider. I need to do this for my business, so
I propose we make it as clear as possible for people to get started.
LOCATION
http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowToDoACommerceSite
WHAT IT COULD CONTAIN
The page could contain information and procedures to:
- set up a merchant test account,
- use the payment module
- test the site
- transition to a live production site
- providing an example starter credit card collection form
- providing a starter database schema and proper practice around
handling credit card information - how to get an SSL certificate
- anything else that would help more rails sites do commerce faster
CALL TO CONTRIBUTE
Please contribute if you know something… the page looks very sketchy
right now. I will add to it at the pace I develop my site, but I have
a sneaky suspicion that lots of you know how to do this already.
Cheers,
Jay
